An Edwinstowe man whose drunken antics led to two police visits and an ambulance being called has been fined, a court has heard.

Terrence Pickering was being difficult in a pub in Nottingham by shouting, screaming and taking some of his clothes off, at 2pm on March 29, said prosecutor Daniel Pietryka.

The police attended and he was sent home, but he was later found with an injury outside Sherwood Rise health centre and an ambulance was called.

Pickering, who represented himself, said: "It was a stupid, stupid mistake. Temptation got the better of me.”

He said he has sought help with his drinking from alcohol agencies.

Pickering, 48, of Brocklehurst Drive, Edwinstowe, admitted being drunk and disorderly, when he appeared at Nottingham Magistrates Court, on Thursday.

He was fined £40 and ordered to pay a £16 surcharge and £85 costs which will be deducted from his benefits.
